Sony Pictures Entertainment, one of the largest film studios in Hollywood, appears to have been the subject of a massive, devastating computer hack. Earlier last week hackers going with the alias name #GOP (which stands for Guardians of Peace) have hacked into the Sony pictures networks and shutdown all the studios computers.
Hackers have already warned Sony that if there demand is not fulfilled then they will leak other confidential data of Sony that were gained after hack. Till yet, "What is the demand of Hackers?" is not been clear and neither Sony have commented anything on this issue.
Yesterday, Hackers have leaked five Sony's unreleased movies which includes tittles as “Annie,” “Mr. Turner,” “Still Alice,” and “To Write Love On Her Arms,” as well as World War II drama “Fury.”
Again today, hackers have leaked a another data files that contains some important information and data's also related to the financial department. The leaked data is of size “tens of terabytes” which was obtained from the Sony servers.
The leak post contains links of the file-sharing sites from where the data can be downloaded. Some of the files named in the initial attack last week appear to have been released, including a spreadsheet with details of salaries for the company’s top executives.
The leaked data contains the personal information of the company's employees which includes the names, address, contact details and much more. The leaked files also contains the information about the company's financial records.
